share your ambitions/goals/training here on a 'newbie ultra' thread........
Peronel: See, I knew you didn't mean it when you said "never again" on the VW thread! How far along was the river? I didn't reach that, although I ran up the stream which had previously been a path, somewhere in the first half of day one (interestingly, by the time I ran back down it again on my way back to Lloyd Park later that afternoon, it was pretty much a path again already).
Great advice I found a website today about how to run ultras
just go slower and eat more..

See, and you were asking about a coach! Saved yourself a fortune now!
oh Tim...this is where we have all been going SO wrong;)...and it was so simple
You mean I don't need to do any of these long runs or B2Bs??? Of course, I -enjoy- the long runs.
Debs! we have got this wrong all along ! forget all the kit we just need to have a mobile picnic!!
( i admit i do love the long runs-last week on NDW was really nice)
Does this mean if we sit around, eat cake, and occassionally bimble about slowly we'll get really good at the running lark? I'm liking this.
I bought new shoes today. I'm doomed. I'm going to have to keep running.
we like new kit on here Peronel, what did ya buy?
Inov-8 roclites. Had terrocs before but they were on their last legs, and the vanguard pretty much destroyed them. They feel good.
WiB - thank you, that's just what I wanted to hear. I'll mark the date in the diary, so I know when not to go near the internet with the credit card, so I don't get sucked in. (I think I should be able to speed up enough. Maybe.)
how about doing NDW50 instead? thats May
SDW50 means I can sleep at my parents, who are 20 mins drive from both start and finish, and I'm unlikely to get lost because I grew up playing on the downs so know the Housedean Farm to Alfriston bit like the back of my hand.
Free accommodation, taxi service, food and - if I'm really lucky - they'll wash the stinky lycra for me. It's a win.
Reminded of Jack LaLanne on diet, again very simple:
"If man made it, don't eat it and if it tastes good spit it out"

Now that's where I'm going wrong!! If it tastes good I eat more
Best advice I ever came across regarding food. Eat, real food, in moderation.
It's just running
by 'eck, it's hilly wrote (see)
I was told that if you didn't know exactly how something was made or understand the ingredients list you shouldn't eat it
that just leaves me with fruit and veg then
i think most important of all with this running lark is just listen to your own body and mind , that goes for food,training ,kit,the lot. only you yourself knows what suits or works best. thats it. simples.
Just 1.5 miles: a risk-assessment run of my parkrun course in the "wrong" direction because we're thinking of doing that for the anniversary run (it's fine) and wearing a new pair of Neo trail shoes for the first time (also fine).
Last night did a nightime run through woodland with head torch, with some others from my club. It was fine and I'm looking to do at least a couple more before first Lakeland 50 recce in November.
Tomorrow I'm off down to the south coast for the Jog Shop Jog 20.

This chili has some heat, but can be altered to not have heat. I created this recipe on the fly one day and it has been a smash hit with everyone who tried it. This chili has a nice blend of beans and tomatoes to balance it out. If made using the Desert Pepper XXX hot Habanero Pepper Sauce it will leave that burn so good feeling. For a not so spicy chili just omit the Desert Pepper. This recipe has room for adding ingredients or omitting ingredients. I usually season my ground beef as well. The ingredients list has my spices listed in it. Submitted by KANEORION Carbs: 15.3g | Fat: 13g | Fiber: 5.4g | Protein: 14.5g | Calories: 233.8

Very low in calories & fat for this thick hearty fat burning soup. The calories you intake with this soup are expended by simply digesting the soup, it fills you up and you burn calories just by eating the soup! Great for people who are trying to lose body fat. The nutritional info for this recipe is based on a 1 cup serving, this recipe makes 8 servings. This soup shows to be very high sodium, if you rinse any canned veggies really well you will reduce the sodium by almost half. Also this recipe uses canned or store bought broth if you used homemade broth the sodium per serving would be under 200mg.

Financial Freedom in 2024
Progress at 25% by December 2016

Things have changed a little this year and in August we made a few changes to our 2013 goals.
New Financial Goals for 2013:
I'm very grateful for the progress we've made in 2013, but there's been a lack of consistency throughout the year. Some of it caused by personal stuff (my Dad being poorly really knocked me for six), and some of it caused by indecision – do we continue with mortgage payoff, or do we invest? We're currently working on our budget & goals for 2014 (and beyond!) and this is the main topic of discussion.
Our Net Worth went up £391.58 in October…at least it's going the right way.
Well done Laura, you have done amazingly. Our success is often best judged by how we respond to setbacks rather than how we do when the going is good. You have continued to over pay and done so well you should be very pleased we have reached 7% paid off in he first 13 months of our mortgage on one income I'm happy with that! X
Thanks Stacey, that's very true!
You should be really proud of how well you've done this year – very inspiring!
I say, this year has been jolly good for your net worth so far! I think you'll reach your 2013 target for sure because you're so close I'm personally investing all my savings. I know I'm already paying down the principle of my debt with every mortgage payment. If I pay back even more of my mortgage then I'll feel like I'm building up too much equity in my home, and I won't feel properly diversified. The FTSE 100 is up nearly 15% year to date. If financial freedom is our goal then we should learn from other people who are financially free already. In my research, most of them found success by buying and holding long term investment assets such as real estate, stocks, or other businesses. Although paying off the mortgage was probably a part of their plans, it certainly wasn't a main focus. But hey, it all depends on your values, risk tolerance and time horizon
Hi Liquid
You make a good point about looking to others who have already achieved FF.
We do have a lot of equity in our house, and haven't decided whether to continue with the aggressive payments or not, but you're right, we're not diversified.
Ideally we have a ten – twelve year timeline to get this done. Hubby is 34, me a little older
I'm glad you were able to cashflow the repairs, and at least they are all behind you now. I think you'll be able to make even more progress, without those looming repair costs.
Thanks DB40! We still have a few house repairs to do – the joys of a Victorian house – but will budget for them in the New Year.
That IS a big decision to make about paying off the mortgage versus investing. I think it depends greatly on how long you plan to live there. The sooner you plan to move, the more the house sale price will be similar to the price you'd be able to get for it today. The further down the road it is, the more variation there could be from today's price, in either direction. I don't think I could figure that one out!
Our original thought was to use the rent from this (mortgage free) house, to pay for our rent in Portugal. But I'm not so sure we want the hassle of that these days. Lots to think about, but either way at least we're moving in the right direction
Wow, 50% of your mortgage nearly paid off! That's huge! Great job on increasing your net worth too!
I hope your Dad is doing much better now. Those things really do take time and so much energy.
That's a really interesting question about whether to continue the mortgage payoff or invest. We're discussing that a lot here, too.
He's okay, but I do spend 1-2 days a week with him now. Thankfully I'm able to.
We're ALWAYS discussing it and playing around with our spreadsheets. The main thing for us is the predictability of paying down our mortgage debt because we have a number and an end date. It'll soon be decision time for 2014
There is always that dilemma – pay down or save! I did a bit of both for years then did a final push to rid myself of debt. I'm glad i did that and now I can concentrate on saving. As long as your net worth increases (which it will either way) then you are on the right track.
Thanks Jane! There is no wrong way as long as you're moving forward! I'm so excited for you – you're so close to your dream now.
Hi FP – yes still here, thank you for asking
I'm over at move to portugal alot more – just taking a little step back from 'money' for a short while

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

Normality returned to the riot-torn town with no fresh incidents reported from anywhere. Curfew was relaxed for two hours on Wednesday, in two spells, to allow people to buy essentials and attend to emergency needs.
However, the officials are planning to extend the curfew by two more days till Friday when members of a community gather for weekly prayers which will also coincide with the Ganesh immersion celebrations in Kurnool. Some of the police forces are likely to be partly withdrawn and shifted to Kurnool where processions will be taken out on Friday.
Meanwhile, the residents of the town who have never been used to this kind of hardship were dejected by their plight.
Confining oneself to indoors in a small place like Adoni where community life is active is a nightmarish experience for many.
Rain lashed the town for 15 minutes during the curfew relaxation time in the evening.
Traders and hawkers exploited the consumers thoroughly taking advantage of the situation. Tomatoes were sold at Rs. 50 a kg, onion Rs. 80, brinjal Rs. 40 and milk somewhere between Rs 30 to 40 per half litre packet. Grocery items were also sold at high prices.
Fruit vendors were missing from the market as they could not procure fresh stocks. Heavy crowds were witnessed at milk booths, medical shops and grocery stores.
Collector Ramsankar Naik asked the officials to ensure there was no shortage of essential items like milk, vegetables and essential medicines.
Police began examining the video footage to identify the persons responsible for fomenting trouble. The next round of arrests are likely to take place after the situation was brought under control.

I just bought my caladiums a few days ago. I was about to start them indoors on heat mats, which is what I have done the last 2 years. Even though I used the heat mats, it seems to take forever to get them started: maybe they just wait until it gets good and hot outside anyway.
But then I realized...I might take a trip for a week or 10 days in May. I do not think I can ask anyone to baby sit my caladiums: it will be enough if they watch my garden for me. Am I better off just waiting til early June, then planting them directly in the pots? I use these in pots of mixed annuals. If I wait, should I keep the bulbs in a cool or a warmer place? |
Follow-Up Postings:
I think (I'm not so good with caladiums) that they will not sprout in the bag like some other bulbs unless they are warm and damp, so I would just wait. They seem to grow much much faster if you just wait till its warm out. Are they packed dry or in sorta moist peat? I would avoid storing them in a warm spot either way. |

2007 Mercedes-Benz GL-Class GL320 CDI
ProsBest SUV on the road ConsAre you kidding?
Much Better Than My First Wife And A Tad Less The My Second Wife — Best all round vehecle I ever owned! Excellent fuel consumption on this diesel powered beauty. Performs like hell for a diesel and only my previously owned BMW 540 will outperform it, but that was not an SUV. Best kept secret from Mercedes Benz ever. No squeks or rattles . Runs like a swiss watch! Best quality in workmanship and materials used. I needed to replace only 1 rear shock absorber and only because the dealer said I should. I could not feal the differance in handelling! It was covered under warrenty though. I must admit that it was my own fault though. I do not think the average SUV owner uses the tow capasity as mush as I do. I sold my chevy Avelance to buy this one but I use it hard just like I did the Avalance. I have 2 utillity trailors, the bigest an 18 footer that weighs empty about 1700 lbs as well as a 21 foot regal cuddy inbourt outboard boat and trailor of 1800 lbs dry weight. The Merc is my only towing vehecle an I use it to tow almost weekly. I have moved myself from Dauphin to Brandon and then from Brandon to Winnipeg with my Merc and tralors in the past two years. So to have 1 rear shock replaced as the only wear and tear is simply amazing!!! The styling is years ahead of anything else on the road. Classically Mercedes Benz - Simply timeless. Styling is miles ahead of its closer competetor. On the highway I have recorded gass mileage with 3 people in the car as low as 8.2 l/ 100 km!!! Cheaper to run than my GTI Golf! This for a tru seven seater! Astonishing to say the least. I have not paid one sent towards maintenance in 3 years. Except for the services which can be pricy at times, but I pay the serveces with a smile 'cos I know that is where the expences stops. The most fun to drive. A tru wolf in sheeps clothing. My next car you might ask? You have quest it --A Merc of course!!! Primary Use: Family transportation

2007 Mercedes-Benz GL-Class GL450
ProsSteers great, wonderful acceleration, just a very solid car. ConsCould be a little more flashy, bucket back seats, and better NAV system.
Fantastic Alternative To The Escalade! — WE bought this car last January with 25k miles, and it's an amazing car! Sure doesn't drive like an SUV in all the best ways. Very smooth ride, and comfortable front seats make it a fantastic luxury SUV. |
2007 Mercedes-Benz GL-Class GL450
ProsSimply unsurpassed in its class. ConsDealership service.
Fast & Comfortable, The Best Suv Out There Overall. — Amazingly comfortable for such a large vehicle, very nice interior. Surprisingly fast, also great handling.

2007 Mercedes-Benz GL-Class GL450
ProsGreat design as far as SUVs go. ConsGas mileage but that's with any big truck.
Great Family Suv — Not bad for a big SUV. Has good acceleration but braking is not so impressive so gotta be careful in the city. Looks great and feels really nice. The luxury factor is pretty good in this vehicle. There are a few rattles from the third row but this seems to be temperature dependent. Primary Use: Commuting to work |
2007 Mercedes-Benz GL-Class GL450
ProsVery dependable. ConsThere is nothing that I do not like about this vehicle.
Excellent For Families In Style. — This vehicle is in great condition. I will miss it very much. I must downgrade to a vehicle that is more suitable for a person without children or a huge family. It is equipped with eveything you could imagine and has alot of horsepower. Primary Use: Commuting to work |
2007 Mercedes-Benz GL-Class GL320 CDI
Proseverthing about it Consfuel consumption and insurance

Too heavy
jacket has ok style. the fit is kind of bulky and even as a down jacket it is rather heavy. i prefer layering for warmth. i cannot wear this jacket unless it's really cold and even then it feels like it is on the bulky side and weighs you down a bit.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Albert Blake Dick)
Albert Blake Dick (April 16, 1856 – August 15, 1934) was a businessman who founded the A.B. Dick Company, a major American copier and office supply company of the 20th Century.[1] He coined the word "mimeograph".[citation needed]
Dick attended school in Galesburg, Illinois, then worked successively for the Brown manufacturing company, Deere & Mansur, and the Moline Lumber Company. He founded the A. B. Dick Company in 1883; it was originally a lumber company before branching into office supplies.[1]
Dick lived in Lake Forest, Illinois.[1] His son Sheldon relied on the Dick fortune in support of his career in publishing, photography, and film.

Helen Mirren and Mick Jagger Have Birthdays Today: Who's Older?
Little did we know back then that those two British babies would go one to become two of England's most celebrated cultural icons: Mick, the infamous and influential frontman of the legendary rock 'n' roll band, The Rolling Stones, and Helen, the Oscar-winning actress who's been deemed a dame by the Queen Elizabeth II.
Now decades into their decorated careers, Mick and Helen are still going strong. Mick just wrapped The Stones' 50 & Counting tour, celebrating their half-decade anniversary, and Helen just hit theaters in Red 2.
Excuse the cliché, but it's safe to say these two prove age is just a number. But can you guess said number? As Helen and Mick blow out the birthday candles today, dare we ask: Do you know which one is actually older?
Have you placed your bet? Good. Then find out if you guessed right here and here.

FC Dallas
Full match highlights from Saturday's 2-2 draw between FCD and Toronto FC
CROSSBAR: Andrew Jacobson pings one off the crossbar on a dipping effort from 30 yards out
GOAL: Andrew Jacobson finishes a free kick from Michel for his second goal of the season to give FCD a first-half advantage
GOAL: Blas Perez blasts home a long cross from Jackson to double Dallas' advantage in the 59th minute
GOAL: Second half substitute Justin Braun scores off a Dallas miscommunication to pull TFC within a goal
SAVE: Raul Fernandez gets a fingertip on Darren O'Dea's flick to preserve the FCD lead
WIDE: Fabian Castillo just misses restoring the two-goal Dallas advantage after a long run
GOAL: Darrel Russel hits an incredible shot in the 90th minute to steal a point for Toronto FC
On Thursday, Dan Hunt joined the FC Dallas Facebook page for his weekly chat with the fans about anything and everything related to FCD. Among the topics discussed include third jerseys, Ajax, and Dan's favorite cold beverage(when he's away from the Budweiser Beer Garden, of course).
Click here to replay the full chat and start thinking of your question for Dan in next week's chat!
Congratulations go out to FC Dallas midfielder Andrew Jacobson who was named to MLSSoccer.com's Team of the Week for week five. It's the first time Jacobson, who was named man of the match in the MLSSoccer.com game recap, has made the Team of the Week while FCD goalkeeper Raul Fernandez also appears on the bench this week. Read Nicholas Rosano's comments on Jacobson's game as well as some numbers behind his performance below:
Bench: Raúl Fernández (FC Dallas), Todd Dunivant (LA Galaxy), Dax McCarty (New York Red Bulls), Boniek García (Houston Dynamo), Eric Avila (Chivas USA), Tony Cascio (Colorado Rapids), Jose Villarreal (LA Galaxy)
MF: Andrew Jacobson (FC Dallas) – Was immense in the middle of the park as Dallas snatched a late 1-0 win on the road against New England. Shut down nearly everything the Revolution attempted to create through the midfield, allowing the FCD attackers more comfort going forward.
The OPTA Chalkboard numbers from Saturday's game certainly justify Rosano's comments. Jacobson truly was a force in the midfield at New England, logging 79 actions - his most of any game this season - while completing a team-high six headers. His passing game was on point as well, completing a season-high 37 passes with just seven unsuccessful passes for a successful passing ratio of 84% - also a season-best.
Do you think MLSSoccer.com got this one right? Should any other FC Dallas players have been included after the big road win?
After making five saves in FC Dallas' shutout win over the New England Revolution on Saturday, Peruvian goalkeeper Raul Fernandez was ranked number one in the Castrol Index Weekly Top 20 for Week 5. Fernandez becomes the first FC Dallas player to claim the Index's top ranking in 2013.
Captain David Ferreira also made it into the Top 10 this week, as he landed at number nine on the list.

MLSsoccer.com's Greg Lalas breaks down Fabian Castillo's game-winning goal against Real Salt Lake in this week's Anatomy of a Goal:
FC Dallas players Jackson and Fabian Castillo were named to MLSsoccer.com's Team of the Week for Week 4. This is Jackson's second time this season - and second straight week - to be named to the Team of the Week, and the first for Castillo in 2013. You can read Nicholas Rosano's explanations of why they made the cut below:
MF: Jackson (FC Dallas) – Worked tirelessly as usual up and down the flanks, and his hard work and pressure were rewarded when he stripped Josh Saunders for Dallas' second goal. Also fed Fabián Castillo on the FCD opener.
MF: Fabián Castillo (FC Dallas) – At his electric best in Dallas' win over RSL on Saturday. Torched Lovel Palmer and fired an unusual but effective high, near-post shot to open the scoring.
See the full Team of the Week here.
What do you think? Should any other FC Dallas players have made the cut this week for their performance against Real Salt Lake?

Barclays Plc (BARC), Britain's second- largest bank by assets, named Jerry del Missier as chief operating officer, leaving Rich Ricci in sole charge of corporate and investment banking.
Del Missier, 50, the co-head of the securities unit since October 2010, starts his new job immediately, London-based Barclays said in a statement today. The position will involve managing computer systems, the bank's back office and helping to implement firebreaks around its consumer division to meet future U.K. regulations.
"Jerry has an outstanding track record and long history of engagement in operations and technology, and I know he will deliver on this agenda at pace," Chief Executive Officer Robert Diamond, 60, said in the statement
Ricci, 48, will alone manage a business that contributed 45 percent of the bank's net revenue last year, according to data compiled by Bloomberg, in a role Diamond occupied before his promotion in January 2011. Diamond is selling assets and seeking to increase profitability to achieve a 13 percent return on equity, as regulators tighten banks' capital requirements.
Resolution planning will be one of del Missier's responsibilities, said Barclays. The U.K.'s Financial Services Authority said last year that banks should prepare so-called living wills setting out how they may be broken up with the least possible disruption to the economy if they collapse. The U.K. government is also adopting proposals, suggested by its Independent Commission on Banking, to build firebreaks around consumer banks.
Avoiding Distraction
"Recovery and resolution, and ring fencing are vitally important projects and getting to a 13 percent return on equity means you don't want the main-line guys getting distracted," Christopher Wheeler, a London-based analyst at Mediobanca SpA who has an outperform rating on the bank, said by telephone.
Del Missier's move may be related to succession planning, Wheeler said.
"I don't think you can ignore this from a succession perspective," Wheeler said. "This is a very senior guy moving to a different, very senior role and it feels like he's getting rounded experience as a possible successor to Bob Diamond," Wheeler said. "But bank succession planning rarely runs smoothly."
Del Missier steps into a position that hasn't been filled since Paul Idzik left in 2008. The bank last month raised about $5.5 billion by selling its stake in BlackRock Inc. (BLK:US) and in February increased his cost-cutting target for next year to 2 billion pounds ($2.5 billion) to bolster profit.
Barclays fell 1.6 pence, or 0.8 percent, to 200.7 pence in London, valuing the company at 24.6 billion pounds.

Levee Run Farm
Wonderful eggs
By: Claude Heffron (Jan 30, 2011)
We picked up a few dozen eggs at Levee Run Farm for the first time yesterday and have already managed to consume quite a few. When we went to the farm, we saw many varieties of very happy looking chickens. Leann was very friendly and the eggs were very reasonably priced. They are delicious! We will definitely stop by again.

Awesome location, that's a well weathered spot. Too bad I cannot speak from experience, wish some of my babies were big enough to show off. But, I'm thinking my Fried Bananas is looking pretty hot, very vigorous, and totally yellow. It is standing up taller than any other yellow golds I have. Plus, it will have fragrant blooms. How about SunPower? At your latitude, it can probably endure more sun than it could here. |
If you buy multiples of Great Expectations and plant them together as a single clump, that would be really nice. It would love that sun. That is a really pretty setting. Of course I will always have to recommend Atlantis which is stunning. There is also Liberty that would look good if multiples of it were planted together to form a larger clump. If you go with any slow grower, plant multiples so you don't have to wait until forever to have something substantial. |
Regal Supreme, with its wider margins? You are way up North so almost any hosta would grow there, right? -Babka |
- Posted by paul_in_mn 4b (My Page) on Sat, May 12, 12 at 15:08
Great ideas. Thanks. And I hadn't thought of planting multiples - might be a good solution. Babka -- I actually live in that pointy part of south western Ontario that is on the same latitude as northern California. Unfortunately we don't get your nice moderated climate since the Great Lakes generate a lot of snow, and our summers can be really really humid. But the hostas in my garden seem to like it here so far!!! |
- Posted by steve_mass 5b (My Page) on Sat, May 12, 12 at 18:01
Sagae. It will pick up the blue of that grass, fill up that half barrel easily, and provide great contrasting leaf shape to that area. I don't think you need a gold. Sagae will do it. I'd buy the biggest one you can find. Or buy two and plant them together. Steve |
Soon as I saw that location I said to myself: 'Liberty" or 'Majesty' or 'Sagae' for something upright. Pieter |
My vote goes for Key West first,up right, and yellow. Love, love mine. Full sun pretty much all day. My second choice would be Dancing Queen, not vase shaped, but a beautiful, clear yellow. |
- Posted by tomahawkclaim (My Page) on Sun, May 13, 12 at 7:12
It's a beautiful spot. Any of the suggestions would be great . . . but . . . you've got so much going on there with different colors and different leaf shapes, I'd favor a plain hosta. Sunpower should be excellent there -- bright, upright, sunloving; I don't know Dancing Queen, but if it's plain, I'd consider it, too. Your eye needs to rest; a big, bold monotone would permit that. IMHO! Nance |
Have Dancing Queen growing in morning sun+ in Ontario and it is doing well. Early riser too. Another yellow that grows well here is Dawn's Early Light. Both are show stoppers in the spring and look great the rest of the year, but not sure if they can take 4 hours of noon and on sun. Even my August Moon has trouble with that |
Jan that is a beautiful setting. I vote for Sagae too. |
Having bought 4 Stained Glass at a local nursery's clearance last Fall and having each look as stunning as this- I second Paul's suggestion. |
Jonny, if that picture is supposed to be of a 'Stained Glass' then that's the strangest one I've seen, looks like my 'June's this time of year.... Pieter |
Agree with Pieter on that. And Jen I would also use something with blue in it. Liberty, Sagae, etc would be stunning as would Regal Splendor. And make sure your container mix is very fast draining and plan to water a lot. I remember someone a few years ago had a gorgeous huge Sagae in a half barrel and lost it the following year because it crown rotted. Lovely setting! Alexa |
Pictures can be deceiving on color so assuming the photo is accurate...You have a lot of texture in that area put not a lot of color variance or brightness so I would go with a bright variegated hosta such as Liberty, Atlantis, etc. I would also plant it as a pot within a pot so that you can take it out for over-wintering. It is a lovely spot with a lot of character so it should be stunning when you're done. Be sure to post a picture! Cj |

Hall and Oates, not to be confused with Quaker or one man named Holland Oats (as BUSTie Callie once believed) is coming to NYC for a free performance! Before Nelly Furtado made 'Maneater' a sexy dance number , it was an edgy Hall and Oates' single with a sweet sax solo. See them for yourself if you're in the area on August 6th at the 31st Annual Seaside Summer Concert Series in Coney Island, or make it a day by going to the New York Aquarium across the street. Then, check out the other performances to come:
August 13: Blondie, Pat Benatar, special guests The Donnas
August 20: Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons, Connie Francis
August 27: Donna Summer

track online visitors
I am trying to create a small art project where I want to track real-time visitors on my site. I am not very good at coding at all and am really struggling to know how to go about this
To give you an idea of what I want to achieve; a basic example would be for every live visitor on my site, a circle would appear on the index page. I am aiming for the end product to be a very basic visualisation of live visitors on the site. So just a group of circles representing how many people are on the site.
I am really struggling to get to grips with the coding needed and would hugely appreciate your help.
Thank you very much for your time,

This is only partially a Javascript task ... you need to have a server side component to keep central track of the actions on the page.
Solution example:
1. Set up a setInterval in Javascript that regularly requests a status update from the server (maybe every five seconds)
2. The status update script will collect all the requests and find out (from the IP) how many users are there. The number of users will be reported back to the calling script ... just as a number
3. The server script will also check if there has been an update for each of the registered IPs in the last (let's say) 8 seconds. If not, remove this IP
4. The request callback in Javascript will take this number and create circles ... The easiest way would be to have a circle image and add another image for each loop counting up to the number of users

Bachpan Bachao's work with schools in and around Hyderabad can teach one a thing or two about social initiative
A meeting with the team of students behind Bachpan Bachao, an NGO focused on education and child welfare and you are not surprised that they have been selected to attend the United Nations Youth Assembly in New York to talk about their work.
Bachpan Bachao was conceived on the eve of children's day when president Prashant Raj, then a first year student at Sreenidhi Institute of Science and Technology, noticed children begging and decided to do something about it. "I thought instead encouraging children to beg by giving them a rupee each, why not put all this money into a common fund and use it for something that will benefit children in the long run," he says. What started out as a small donation drive in his classroom soon spread to the entire college. The organisation was officially founded on November 14, 2011. "Seeing that lack of education was the root cause of many problems, eradicating illiteracy became our motto," adds Arun Kumar a core member. Today they have 400 active volunteers and more than 800 registered members.
What they do
"We mainly visit schools and talk to the staff and students about what they need and try to provide them with that. One school for instance did not have water supply so we raised money and installed RO (reverse osmosis) plants for them," informs Chaitra Reddy, another member. "We also do small things, like replacing expired First Aid kits in schools,' adds member Aditi Reddy. Bachpan Bachao relies only on small student donations. "Students donate Rs.1 everyday or Rs.30 every month. We are very transparent about our expenditure," Chaitra points out. "We also get a lot of help, including transportation for our field visits from college.
Their work is divided into six different project heads. Project MTTV (Make a Team, Teach a village) involves conducting awareness campaigns for the entire village on new government schemes or issues like educating the girl child. Under Project Pustak, they collect books and set up small scale mobile libraries in government primary schools. Project Viksara provides access to potable water.
They also have Projects Talent and Health.
Volunteers of the organisation frequently visit the schools and respective villages to provide help in the classroom, conduct parent-teacher meetings along with school staff and the sarpanchto discuss their childrens' education, hold motivational sessions for students who are preparing for examinations or simply spend time with the students.
Bachpan Bachao currently works with about 6-7 schools that are in and around their college.
"Our hope is that once we spread to other colleges, they too will start working with a small number of schools around them," mentions Prashanth.
Bachpan Bachao's selection to present their resolution project at the UNYA comes as a great opportunity for them.
"We are presenting a plan to implement e-learning schemes in Hyderabad's government schools. If selected, we are planning to get in touch with the State government make this happen in 8-10 schools in each district," says Prashanth. "There will be over 600 people from 198 countries present; it is a great opportunity for collaborations," points out Chaitra, adding that representing India at the UN will also help them to gain more credibility as an organisation.
Bachpan Bachao is planning on recruiting students from all over Hyderabad this June. You can find out more about them at bachpanbachao.org or www.facebook.com/bachpanbachao.

Ahead of polling day for the Queensland State Election we are asking voters to do their homework.
In the absence of Australian Sex Party candidates it may be that no candidate will satisfy all of your electoral desires. Therefore voters should be asking those contesting the election if they support civil liberties.
First and foremost ask candidates in your electorate if they are pro-choice and support access to safe and legal abortions. If they don't, don't vote for them.

Euthanasia and Sex: Little and Big Deaths Join Forces
- Details
- Published on Wednesday, 26 November 2014 05:50
The Voluntary Euthanasia Party and the Australian Sex Party will come together tomorrow morning, at 11am, on the steps of Parliament House for a media conference.
Dr Phillip Nitschke and Fiona Patten will announce their formal preference swap arrangement for the Upper House, with both parties going straight to each other in Southern and Northern Metro.
Voluntary euthanasia is demonstrably the biggest single issue where both major parties are out of step with community opinion and the opinions of their own party members. The ABC's Vote Compass poll showed that 71% of Coalition voters want voluntary euthanasia legalised while 79% of Labor voters do. However both parliamentary parties remain implacably opposed to initiating new laws.

The Australian Sex Party and The Basics Rock 'n Roll Party have announced a formal preference swap in the upper house region of Northern Metro for the upcoming Victorian State election and will celebrate their union with a joint campaign through the streets of Melbourne this Sunday.
Rock n Roll and Sex will campaign together off the back of a decked-out, six metre flat bed truck this Sunday, 23rd November, with The Basics playing live for the crowds. It's a cheeky hat tip to AC/DC's famous "It's A Long Way to the Top", 1975 ,truck gig along Swanston st.

The Recent Face the Music Summit

The recent Face the Music summit held an industry forum to debate the politics of music in Victoria. I was on a panel with Liberal, Labor and Greens representatives as well as Kris Schroeder from the Basics – Rock 'n Roll Party. Kris has had a bit of negative feedback on his contribution but I think we need a bit of perspective here in the way people perform in different forums.
Statement on the East-West Link project
- Details
- Published on Monday, 10 November 2014 00:49
The East-West Link is a project that is ironically dividing Victorians when its stated goal was to link them. Criticisms of the project and the way it has been handled by the Napthine government are many, and many of them are well founded.
The Australian Sex Party supports transparent and open government and the Napthine government has clearly failed the test when it comes to openness and transparency regarding the East-West Link project. The Australian Sex Party cannot support the project without a public release of the full business case and an independent review by Infrastructure Australia that detailed vastly improved economic benefits.
Claims that stage one of the East-West Link project would clear congestion in the inner city are vastly overstated. The current design lacks city access and we are concerned about the loss of green space in Royal Park. It should not proceed in its current design. Under investment in major public transport infrastructure in Melbourne must be addressed.

You Can Currently Get 10 Free Movies If You're Willing to Put Up With Logging Into Another Streaming Service
Movie News By Nathan Adams on October 8, 2013 | Be the First To CommentMovie fans have about a million ways to stream movies to their televisions and whatever other techno devices they might find themselves carrying around these days. You can get movies via iTunes, the Google Play Store, Amazon's thing, VUDU, Vdio, and heck, doesn't Redbox even have a streaming service now? Some might look at that crowded lineup of content platforms and think that there's no more room for competition, but not big box retailer Target, because they've just launched their own streaming video offering, Target Ticket [via The Next Web]. The details of the service seem to match all of the other services that are already out there. It includes both movies and TV shows, you can either rent the content for a brief time or purchase the right to stream things an unlimited amount of times, and prices all look to be competitive with what everyone else is doing. Given that Target Ticket isn't offering anything that's much different from what everyone else is offering, and you're probably already tied into one or more of these other services already, why on Earth would you want to create yet another login with yet another service that's virtually identical to everything that's come before it?
